What you need to know about search engine submission, Part I

by Terry Stanfield

If your website has not been indexed by the search engines you will not come up in the search results. When you search the “web” using Google, Yahoo or MSN’s search tools, you’re not searching the Internet you are searching the search engines databases.

When a site is submitted to the search engines the search engines uses software called “spiders” to crawl the pages of your website through your internal site navigation and captures vital information about each page and in puts it into their database.

The information captured include Meta tags, content, H1 tags, Alt tags, sites that you link to and sites that links back to your site. The Meta tags are at the top of your web page in the code. They are in what is called the header. The Meta tags are very important to the search engines because they tell them what is on the page. Along with the H1 tags Alt tags and the content in the body of the text on the web page this gives the search engines the information they need to index or put into their database your web page. It is very important that your Meta tags are specific to each page of your site. Do not just copy and paste the same Meta tags to every page on your website. There’s a big explanation from that old and that later. There are several ways to get web pages into the search engines a database (indexed).

Submit your site to the different search engines. There are a lot of sites, for small fee, that will take your indexed pager homepage and submit it to hundreds or thousands of search engines over and over every month for the rest of your life. Run don’t walk away from the sites. If you keep trying to submit your site, especially to Google, Yahoo and MSN, this may appear to them as spam. Spammy is bad! I suggest that you do not even register with Google, yahoo or MSN unless you have 6 to 9 weeks to sit around and wait for your website to be indexed.

In part II, we will reveal the secrets of getting fast, safe submissions.

Lead Generation: Finding MLM Leads

by Corey Berenson

Many feel that it is difficult to find MLM leads. Considering that it is hard work in the beginning it will certainly be worth it. There are options available to you when searching for MLM leads.

The simplest and most common form of obtaining MLM leads is through networking. Using groups and forums to build relationships are great for people who love to talk and socialize. After you have contacted someone whom you are comfortable talking with you can further discuss your real intentions.

Introducing yourself with the intentions of marketing to a complete stranger is very awkward. Therefore, networking through groups and forums to generate MLM leads might seem to take a little longer to establish contacts but you will know almost immediately the quality of the lead that you have just made. MySpace is a good forum to get started with and Yahoo or Google are great groups to consider in finding MLM leads.

MLM leads can be found through target marketing. Your goal is to contact and communicate with others with the same interests and in similar programs. Sharing advice and considering alternate options is a benefit of target marketing. In addition, you are getting assistance from others that might have been in the same program for a longer period of time.

If you are looking to get quality leads in the fastest amount of time and don’t mind investing a little money then you should consider buying leads. But, with everything else, research the reputation of the provider to ensure you will be getting quality leads prior to making a purchase.

Most importantly, once you have been provided with the leads you are looking for, contact them immediately. Just be prepared to do your share of the work even if you have contacted a lead provider. It is the best investment for your business in the end.

SEO is another great way to get MLM leads. From the smallest companies to the most successful, SEO is an option en route to your success. Pay Per Click and Natural are the two different categories of SEO to look into.

The final option is Bounce backs. This method allows you to respond to emails of opportunity that is good since they are building a strong database. However, you should expect to get SPAM mail that can get annoying. The bright side to this is the fact that you will be able to be part of mailing lists and verify the emails you receive. It may take some time to find the perfect way to respond to these emails, but once you find your niche, you can get the solid leads you need.

Giving business a more personal touch and allowing for real-time communication between parties of considerable distances is definitely a feature of conference call services. This is clearly the best alternative for businesses than a person-to-person meeting and it bridges the gap for not being able to provide customers with personalized services due to long distances.

This is an effective form of communication and gives everyone involved in the conference call a complete communications experience. It is most useful when used to debrief employees or receive sales reports from the sales field.
